20.0 SHELBY COUNTY GOVERNMENT EQUAL OPPORTUNITY COMPLIANCE (EOC)PROGRAM

This project is subject to Shelby County Government’s Locally Owned Small Business (LOSB) Ordinances 471 & 474 and /or Minority and Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) Ordinances 472 & Amendment and Ordinance 473. The intent of the EOC Program is to increase the participation of LOSB and MWBE certified vendors in the County’s purchasing activities.

Shelby County Government is committed to a policy of non-discrimination pursuant to the Equal Protection provisions of the United States Constitution. It is further the policy of Shelby County that it’s purchasing and contracting practices encourage the use of Locally-Owned Small Businesses (LOSB’s) and/or Minority/Woman Business Enterprises (M/WBE) Program in all solicitations. In furtherance of these policy objectives, Shelby County seeks to afford all citizens equal opportunities to do business on county contracts and to ensure that all bidders, proposers, or Vendors doing business with Shelby County provide to LOSB’s, maximum practicable opportunities, commensurate with availability, price and capabilities required, to participate on contracts which are paid for, in whole or in part, with monetary appropriations from Shelby County.

Shelby County seeks to prevent discrimination against any person or business in pursuit of these opportunities on the basis of race or gender. Shelby County will conduct its contracting and purchasing Program so as to discourage any discrimination and will actively seek to resolve all claims of discrimination brought against Shelby County or any Vendors involved in such contracting and purchasing Program.

The LOSB & MWBE Programs are consistent with Shelby County Policies and Procedures. Wherever conflicts exist, the provision in the Shelby County Policies and Procedures will prevail.

26

Subcontractor to make payments to his Sub-subcontractors in similar manner. 9.6 Payments Withheld 9.6.1 The Architect may decline to certify payments and may withhold his Certificate in whole or in part, to the extent necessary to protect the Owner, if in his opinion he is unable to make representations to the Owner as provided in Subparagraph 9.4.2.

The failure to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of the

27

Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

The

Architectσ final Certificate for Payment will constitute a further

representation that the conditions precedent to the Contractorσ being entitled to final payment as set forth in Subparagraph 9.7.2 have been fulfilled. 9.8.2 Neither the final payment nor the remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the Architect (1) an affidavit that all payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or his property might in any way be responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) consent of surety to final payment and (3) if required by the Owner, other data

ARTICLE XII CHANGES IN THE WORK 12.1 Change Orders 12.1.1 A Change Order is a written order to the Contractor signed by the Owner issued after execution of the Contract, authorizing a change in the Work or an adjustment in the Contract Sum or the Contract Time. The Contract Sum and the Contract Time may be changed only by Change Order. A Change Order signed by the Contractor indicates his agreement therewith, including the adjustment in the Contract Sum or the Contract Time. The Contractor by execution of the Change Order waives any further claims or damages in any manner whatsoever for the changes set forth in the Change Order. 12.1.2 The Owner, without invalidating the Contract, may order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions, the Contract Sum and the Contract Time being adjusted accordingly. All such changes in the Work shall be authorized by Change Order, and shall be performed under the applicable conditions of the Contract Documents. 12.1.3 The cost or credit to the Owner resulting from a change in the Work shall be determined in one or more of the following ways: Initial ______

.1 by lump sum properly itemized on the form furnished by the Owner which shall show the actual verified cost of the work, plus ten percent overhead and five percent profit; if the work is performed by a Subcontractor, the General Contractor is allowed an additional five percent;

.2 by unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or

subsequently agreed upon;

.3 by cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; or

.4 by the method provided in Subparagraph 11.1.4.

34

12.1.4 If none of the methods set forth in Clauses 12.1.3.1, 12.1.3.2, or 12.1.3.3 is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided he receive a written order signed by the Owner, shall promptly proceed with the Work involved. The cost of such Work shall then be determined by the Architect on the basis of the reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change, including, in the case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit, which shall be defined as ten percent overhead and five percent profit with an additional five percent going to the General Contractor when the work is performed by a Subcontractor. In such case, and also under Clauses 12.1.3.3 and 12.1.3.4 above, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data for inclusion in a Change Order. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, cost shall be limited to the following: cost of labor, including social security, old age and unemployment insurance and fringe benefits required by agreement or

custom; workers= or workmen compensation insurance; bond premiums, rental value of equipment and machinery; and the additional costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change. Pending final determination of cost to the Owner,

payments on account shall be made on the Architectσ Certificate for Payment. The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for any deletion or change which results in a net decrease in the Contract Sum will be the amount of the actual net cost as confirmed by the Architect. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in any one change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of the net increase, if any, with respect to that change. Initial ______ 12.2 Concealed Conditions 12.2.1 Should concealed conditions encountered in the performance of the Work below the surface of the ground or should concealed or unknown conditions in an existing structure be at variance with the conditions indicated by the Contract Documents, or should unknown physical conditions below the surface of the ground or should concealed or unknown conditions in an existing structure of an unusual nature, differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in this Contract, be encountered, Contractor, subject to approval by the Architect, shall be entitled

to a time extension for only the period that the Contractorσ performance is extended due to the unforeseen conditions.

35

12.3 Minor Changes in the Work 12.3.1 The Architect will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such Changes shall be effected by written order, and shall be binding on the Owner and the Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written orders promptly. ARTICLE XIII UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION OF WORK 13.1 Uncovering of Work 13.1.1 If any portion of the Work should be covered contrary to the request of the Architect or to requirements specifically expressed in the Contract Documents, it must, if required in writing by the Architect, be uncovered for his observation and

shall be replaced at the Contractorσ expense. 13.1.2 If any other portion of the Work has been covered which the Architect has not specifically requested to observe prior to being covered, the Architect may request to see such Work, and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If such Work is found in accordance with the Contract Documents, the cost of uncovering and replacement shall, by appropriate Change Order, be charged to the Owner. If such Work is found not in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall pay such costs. If the Work to be uncovered by the Contractor should have been inspected by the Architect prior to being covered, and the Work is found to be in accordance with the Contract Documents, the cost of the uncovering and recovering of the Work shall be borne by the Architect. Initial ______ 13.2 Correction of Work 13.2.1 The Contractor shall promptly correct all Work rejected by the Architect as defective or as failing to conform to the Contract Documents whether observed before or after Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or completed. The Contractor shall bear all costs of correcting such rejected

Work, including compensation for the Architectσ additional services made necessary thereby. 13.2.2 If, within one year after the Date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof, within one year after acceptance by the Owner of designated equipment or within such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the term of any applicable special warranty required by the

36

Contract Documents, any of the Work is found to be defective or not in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of a written notice from the Owner to do so. This obligation shall survive termination of the Contract. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after discovery of the condition. 13.2.3 The Contractor shall remove from the site all portions of the Work, which are defective or non-conforming, unless removal is waived by the Owner. 13.2.4 If the Contractor fails to correct defective or non-conforming Work as provided in Subparagraphs 4.5.1, 13.2.1, and 13.2.2, the Owner may correct it in accordance with Paragraph 3.4. 13.2.5 If the Contractor does not proceed with the correction of such defective or non-conforming Work within a reasonable time fixed by written notice from the Architect, the Owner may remove it and store the materials or equipment at the expense of the Contractor. If the Contractor does not pay the cost of such removal and storage within ten days thereafter, the Owner may, upon ten

additional days= written notice, sell such Work at auction or a private sale and shall account for the net proceeds thereof, after deducting all the costs that should have been borne by the

Contractor, including compensation for the Architectσ additional services made necessary thereby. If such proceeds of sale do not cover all costs, which the Contractor should have borne, the difference shall be charged to the Contractor and an appropriate Change Order shall be issued. If the payments then or thereafter due the Contractor are not sufficient to cover such amount, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner. 13.2.6 The Contractor shall bear the cost of making good all work of the Owner or separate contractors destroyed or damaged by such correction or removal. Initial ______ 13.2.7 Nothing contained in Paragraph 13.2 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to any other obligation which the Contractor might have under the Contract Documents, including Paragraph 4.5 hereof. The establishment of the time period of one year after the Date of Substantial Completion or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the terms of any warranty required by the Contract Documents relates only to the specific obligation of the Contractor to correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which his obligation to comply with the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be

commenced to establish the Contractorσ liability with respect to his obligations other than specifically to correct the Work.

37

13.3 Acceptance of Defective or Non-Conforming Work 13.3.1 If the Owner prefers to accept defective or non-conforming Work, he may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case a Change Order will be issued to reflect a reduction in the Contract Sum where appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effective whether or not final payment has been made. ARTICLE XIV TERMINATION OF THE CONTRACT 14.1 Termination for Default 14.1.1 Should the Contractor fail to perform in strict accordance with this Agreement, where or as Owner may so direct, or should the Contractor become insolvent, unable to or fail to pay its obligations as they mature or, in any other respect fail in the opinion of the Owner, to properly prosecute and perform any part of its work, fail to exert its best performance efforts, be involved in labor disputes, or be terminated under any other contract with Owner, then the Contractor may be deemed by Owner to have materially breached and to have defaulted in its obligations under this Agreement. In case of a breach and default, the Owner, at its discretion, may terminate this Agreement, or any part thereof, by giving five (5) days written notice thereof to the Contractor. In case of such termination, Owner may use any and all materials, equipment, tools or chattels furnished by or belonging to the Contractor either at or for the Project. 14.1.2 The Contractor, on termination, will be deemed to have offered to Owner an assignment of all of its subcontracts and purchase orders relating to this Project.

Contractorσ name. Owner may withhold from Contractor any monies due or to become due under this or any other contract between the Contractor and Owner, to offset the damages incurred or possibly incurred as a result of the breach and default by the Contractor. In case of a breach, or in the event Owner is required to retain the services of an attorney to enforce any provisions of this Agreement, then the Contractor and its surety company shall be liable to Owner for any and all additional costs, expenses,

attorneyσ fees and other damages, both liquidated and unliquidated,

which directly or indirectly result from the Contractorσ breach, threatened breach, default or lack of performance of any term or condition of this Agreement.

38

14.1.3 If the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum exceeds the costs of finishing the Work, including compensation for the

Architectσ additional services made necessary thereby, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If such costs exceed the unpaid balance, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner. The amount to be paid to the Contractor or to the Owner, as the case may be, shall be certified by the Architect, upon application, in the manner provided in Paragraph 9.4, and this obligation for payment shall survive the termination of this Contract. 14.2 Termination for Convenience 14.2.1 Owner, by written notice, shall have the right to terminate and cancel this Agreement, without the Contractor being at fault, for any cause or for its own convenience, and require the Contractor to immediately stop work.

Owner shall not be liable to the Contractor for any other costs, including prospective profits on Work not performed. ARTICLE XV RIGHT TO OCCUPY BY OWNER 15.1 Early Occupancy by Owner 15.1.1 The Owner has the right to occupy or use ahead of schedule all or any substantially completed or partially completed portion of the Work when such occupancy and use are in its best interest, notwithstanding the time of completion for all of the Work. If occupancy or use increases the cost of the Work (other than for corrections which are the responsibility of the Contractor) and/or as a result of the Owner exercising its rights Initial ______ herein, the contractor shall be entitled to extra costs and extensions of time, or both. Claims for such extra costs and extensions of time, to be valid, shall be made in writing to the Owner within seven (7) calendar days of the notification of Owner to the Contractor of its intent to so occupy or use. 15.2 Corrections after Occupancy 15.2.1 After the Owner has taken occupancy of all or any substantially completed portion of the Work, the Contractor shall not disrupt the use and occupancy of the Owner to make corrections in the Work but shall, at the discretion of the Owner, make such corrections at the expense of the Contractor after normal working

39

hours. 15.3 Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning Systems 15.3.1 The Owner may require the use and operation of any completed heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning equipment at the time it occupies or uses any substantially completed portion of the Work.
